An Italian group visited al-Liqa Center to know more about its history, programs, activities and its publications and the main goals of such initiatives. Dr. Geries S. Khoury met the youth group and welcomed them in the Holy Land and at Al-Liqa Center. According to the groupís demand he told them about the Christian Muslim common daily life which he described as excellent. All enjoy religious freedom and Christians are participating fully in public life.

The presentation was followed by a discussion session in which many in the group participated in asking questions or making comments. This meeting was another proof of how much Westerners ignore Arab Christian history, Islam and the history of the Palestinian Israeli conflict, and the actual challenges which Palestinians are facing in their daily life.
